Description
Bitkey is the safe, simple, and secure way to own and manage your bitcoin. It’s a mobile app, hardware device, and a set of recovery tools all in one wallet.
Control
If you hold bitcoin with an exchange, you don’t control it. With Bitkey, you hold the private keys and control your money.
Security
Bitkey is a 2-of-3 multi-signature wallet which means there are three private keys protecting your bitcoin. You always need two out of three keys to sign a transaction, giving you extra protection.
Recovery
Bitkey recovery tools help you recover your bitcoin if you lose your phone, hardware, or both, without needing a seed phrase.
Manage
Use the app to send, receive, and transfer bitcoin safely on the go. For added protection, you can set a daily spending limit on your phone.

Ratings and Reviews
Not overly secure
I have to say I’m a little shocked at the lack of security on this app
There is no passcode or face unlock options to secure the app which should have been number 1 priority considering you can just use up to £200 without protection
Secondly I’m bemused as to why no wallet seed is given as an option, this should be at least an option with a warning about the possibility of issues should it not be stored well
I know this is aimed at newcomers to the Bitcoin infrastructure but I feel simple things like this should have been implemented from day one and more guides on how bitcoin works would be nice fore those that don’t know about it
